World: Troops can shoot if necessary in Armenia attacks
MOSCOW — The Kremlin on Wednesday authorized the thousands of soldiers it sent to the Caucasus to open fire if necessary on Armenians and Azerbaijanis fighting in the hills near the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh.
Thousands of Armenian refugees poured from the southern republic of Azerbaijan, many beaten or chased from their homes by angry mobs. Some blamed the attacks on ’ Azerbaijanis who earlier fled ethnic violence in Armenia.
The death toll rose to 58, mostly Armenians, and the number of injured to 169 in five days of civil warfare, an Interior Ministry official said.
Nation: More eruptions expected from volcano
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A 20-minute eruption at Redoubt volcano forced some flight delays and cancellations Wednesday in Anchorage as ash and steam was released six miles into the atmosphere.
The Alaska Volcano Observatory said the eruption late Tuesday was small but the 10,197-foot volcano continued to shudder Wednesday.
“The seismicity is a little higher than it was before the event yesterday, so we’re watching it closely,” said Robert McGimsey, a geologist at the observatory.
State: Campus to keep park open for recreation
BERKELEY, Calif. — The University of California released a revised development plan for its Berkeley campus Tuesday that preserves People’s Park as open space while proposing two million square feet of new buildings.
The plan, which outlines the university's growth through 2005, was originally released last April but was revised after it received extensive criticism.
The revised plan includes an accord reached last fall between the university dnd the City of Berkeley to preserve People’s Park. The park would be improved to serve as recreational space.
The plan would also ban vehicles from the central campus area and replace parking lots with new garages on the periphery of campus. From tho Associated Pnss

New standard set for 1990 senate race
By Bob Elston
Assistant City Editor
The Student Senate passed an amendment Wednesday night requiring prospective senate candidates to file a position paper, in addition to the candidate filing form, before being eligible to run.
The amendment, authored by Anthony DeBarry, chairman of the Student Senate's Elections and Recruitment Commission, was designed to give voters a better profile of the candidates.
"The big change is the position paper," DeBarry said. "The Student Senate wants to have elections based not on image but on issues."
He said that his commission is planning to schedule debates and meet-the-candidate-type occasions.
In a bloc of election-related amendments, the Senate rejected a proposal requiring students voting in the senate elections to present two forms of identification before casting a ballot.
That amendment, which fell five votes short of a required two-thirds majority, was introduced to help prevent a reprise of last March's election fiasco when the original balloting was nullified on the grounds of voter fraud.
DeBarry said that in the past, students misrepresented themselves in order to vote more than once, and that candidates had their friends who were not students vote for them.
DeBarry, author of the identification amendment, said that he intends to reintroduce a similiar amendment at next week's meeting.
"We need to do something now to insure (voter fraud) doesn't happen again," he said. "It is sort of preventive of corruption."
Tara Brigham, senate president, said the Senate recognizes the need for some type of modification in the procedure. The majority of senators believed that the rejected

USC to print quake safety tips

The university is preparing information pamphlets to educate students and staff about the do's and don'ts of earthquake preparedness, in response to University President James Zumberge's request for a centralized university earthquake preparedness plan, said Bill Re-
gensberger, the university's full-time planning coordinator.
"The real concern is that during those first three to four minutes (of an earthquake), kids should know what to do," Regensberger said.
Zumberge's request reiterated the university's desire to be prepared during an
emergency.
''The recent Bay Area earthquake emphasized anew how important our preparations are," Zumberge said in a memorandum dated Nov. 30, 1989. "They have the highest priority. We urge you (Regensburger) to move ahead."
An appropriate response to earthquakes is something
most people do not take time to think about until the ground actually starts shaking, said Tom Brown, the president of The Earthquake Preparedness Society.
“Inappropriate actions during a quake can kill you," Brown said.
Students have misconceptions and have been misinformed about what to do if a quake occurs, Regensberger said.

Though the 1980s saw a decade of expansion for the university's Health Sciences campus, university officials do not see the 1990s as a decade of rest. Officials are already planning extensive new projects, such as a research hospital and the possible relocation of the Dental School from the University Park campus.
